High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! George Samuel Lindgren, JP, DL (11 November 1900 8 September 1971) was a British Labour Party politician. Born in Islington, London, at the 1935 general election, he was an unsuccessful candidate in the safe Conservative seat of Hitchin in Hertfordshire, coming a distant second with 36.7% of the votes. At the 1945 general election, Lindgren was elected to the House of Commons as Member of Parliament for the marginal seat of Wellingborough in Northamptonshire, ousting the sitting Conservative MP Archibald James on a swing of 7.7% vote. He was immediately appointed to the new Labour government as a junior minister, serving as Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of National Insurance from 1945 to 1946, as Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Civil Aviation from 1946 to 1950, and as Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Town and Country Planning from 1950 to 1951. Lindgren held the seat until the 1959 general election, when he lost his seat by 606 votes to the Conservative Michael Hamilton.
